I guess I'm surprised anybody needed a benchmark to discover that out of the box, Drupal is faster on MySQL. After all, we've been spent years fine tuning Drupal to run fast on MySQL, and done nothing of the sort for any other database. I've personally spent many hours helping tweak Drupal's queries and database definitions to make it run fast on MySQL, and there are others who have devoted more time than I have.
